Questions about the AI background changer

Do I need to cut out the subject first?
No. The subject is separated from the background automatically.
What file types work?
JPG, PNG and WebP. Large photos are resized to 2048 pixels on the longest side before upload, which also removes location data.
Do you keep my original photo?
No. Uploaded photos are deleted as soon as your result is ready. Results stay in your account until you delete them.
